Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 736

Kiki didn’t expect her father would want to visit Julian and give him a consultation immediately.

She hesitated for a moment, apprehension in her heart. “Dad… Is Julian’s condition very serious?”

“Yes, very.” Many severe illnesses began with no symptoms.

That was especially so for many cancer patients, who look like any other person even until the late stages of their cancer. They only realized something was wrong with their health when they got terminally ill—by then things would be too late.

Julian’s condition was even more tricky than terminal cancer.

He wasn’t suffering from cancer, but something even scarier than cancer.

Shiloh had seen such cases before, in which patients would lose much weight from vomiting and imbalance in micronutrients in the body. Ordinary doctors might think that the patient’s body only lacked something and required the corresponding nutrients.

In actual fact, it was a symptom of a severe disease.

If treatment and medication were received in time, there might be hope of saving the patient. But if the condition wasn’t diagnosed in time and treatment was delayed, even the most knowledgeable doctor would have no way of helping the patient.

“What’s the name of this condition? Does it have a scientific name?”

“No.” Shiloh shook his head, “I treated one such case in the past, and luck definitely plays a part in this. As for this time…” He hesitated. “It's hard to say if I can treat him.”

That was why he was so anxious to meet Julian in person as soon as he could—to confirm the progress of his condition.

He packed up the things he needed for a consultation. When he turned around, he saw his daughter still standing at the same spot and refusing to move. “Kiki, why aren’t you moving?”

Kiki lowered her head, crumpling the hem of her shirt in her hands. “Dad… Julian’s critical condition is actually a golden opportunity for me. Threatening Diana with it and forcing her to leave him is the only way for me to be with him. After all, Julian’s obsessed with her right now. I can’t make a move on him, so I’ll have to find a chance with Diana.”

“What?!” Shiloh finally understood what she wanted to do. “You’re trying to make me stand idly by and delay treating a patient who’s suffering from a complicated and difficult condition that will likely send him to his grave…just because of your selfishness? You’re asking me to sacrifice my ethics?!”

Shiloh looked at Kiki in disappointment, then picked up his things and headed to the door. “I can’t do it!” He exclaimed, furious.

Kiki was choked by her father’s words. She could only watch him walk out of the door.

She stood there helplessly, watching her plan fail right before her eyes…
